You are viewing a 3rd owner beautifully maintained original 1984 Mazda RX-7 GS with an (hard to find) automatic 4spd transmission with 71560 original miles. There are no known mechanical issues with the engine and transmission. The car runs and drives perfectly! I have owned this vehicle since 2000, and have only driven it approximately 5000 miles. Most of its time with me has been in storage. Prior to me, the vehicle was owned by a sheriff who purchased it in 1986. He also maintained it in storage for many years. As far as I am aware,the vehicle has never seen a winter! There is no rust on the body, and the car was treated in the 80’s with the anticorrosivetreatment (rusty jones— see engine picture). The paint is in gorgeous condition and lusters with a fresh coat of wax. However, there are several areas that have chips and dings as expected for a nearly 30 year old vehicle (butthese are hardly noticeable). Mechanically the car is absolutely sound! Tires arenew (maybe 200 miles on the tread), and about 5000 miles on all new brakes. This car is a perfect candidate for restoration to show room condition as it doesn’t need that much! If you are looking to experience the retro classic sports car feel from the 80’s then this vehicle is for you! Features 1.1 Liter 12A rotary engine RWD, automatic 4spd automatic with manual overdrive. Removable Sun roof AM/FM stereo and cassette deck along with standard options. Shipping Buyer handles all shipping arrangements. No warranty: vehicle as is. Thanks for looking and happy bidding

Takashi Yamanouchi to retire as Mazda chairman
Mon, 12 May 2014Takashi Yamanouchi has been with Mazda for a long time. He signed on with the Japanese automaker in April 1967 - one month after graduating from Keio University - and rose through the ranks over the years. By 1996 he was named to the company's board of directors. In 2008 he was named president and CEO, an office he held until 2013, after which he handed over the day-to-day reins to Masamichi Kogai and took up the seat at the head of the board room to serve as the company's chairman. But now, after 47 years working for Mazda, Yamanouchi-san is retiring at the age of 69.
During his tenure as CEO and then as chairman, Yamanouchi was credited with growing Mazda's business despite unfavorable fluctuations in exchange rates, opening the company's first plant in Mexico, and spearheading the development of Mazda's Skyactiv technologies and Kodo design language.
In his place, current vice chairman Seita Kanai will take over as chairman. The changing of the guard will take place after the annual shareholders' meeting on June 24.
Mazda's first profit in five years in sight due to weak yen
Fri, 05 Apr 2013Automotive News reports Mazda is set to turn a profit for the first time in five years. The automaker is more dependent on exports from Japan than other automakers based in that country, and as a result, it has long suffered at the hands of a strong yen. But the currency has declined in value by some 16 percent over the past six months and Mazda's shares have tripled in value to their highest level since 2008. Contrast this situation to a year ago when Mazda printed 1.22 billion new shares to raise cash. The move was equivalent to 70 percent of the company's then-outstanding stock, and values tumbled to record lows as a result.
Now that the yen has fallen to a value of around 96 per dollar, Mazda operations in the US are more profitable and the company now projects it will earn around $279 million for the next fiscal year. Automotive News says a one yen change against the dollar can have a 9.1 percent impact on Mazda operating profit compared to 4.7 percent at Subaru parent Fuji Heavy Industries or 3.1 percent at Toyota. Those automakers better insulate themselves from currency fluctuations with overseas manufacturing facilities.
Honda may recall up to 1M vehicles for airbag issue, following Toyota's lead
Mon, 16 Jun 2014It seems Toyota won't be the only one recalling the faulty Takata airbag inflators for long. Honda insiders in Japan claim that the company is getting close to announcing its own worldwide campaign that would begin before the end of June.
Unnamed sources close to Honda in Japan tell Automotive News that the company is pursuing an internal investigation into possibly affected models and is working with Takata to gather more information. They claim that it could involve even more than the 1.14 million cars worldwide that the automaker covered under the first recall for the problem in April 2013, including 561,000 vehicles in the US.
Toyota jumpstarted this process last week when it recalled over 2 million cars worldwide, including 844,277 in the US. Soon after, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration began a preliminary evaluation into the issue following six reported incidents, and started assembling data about potentially affected models from Toyota, Honda, Mazda, Nissan, Chrysler. NHTSA also began investigating Takata itself.
